The Derwent Valley is a region, and also a local government area, of Tasmania. As its name suggests, it covers the upper part of the Derwent River, from the major town of New Norfolk (just north-west of Hobart) to the remote south-west Hydro town of Strathgordon.

The municipality has a population of 9,743 (2001 census).
